Begin the New Year with an all-day goal-shaping, intention-setting, vision-seeking, commitment-making, dream-building, New Year’s workshop for writers and other creative geniuses. Using prompts and images–both written and visual, we’ll free-write and vision-board what we most want in the coming year. Bring your notebooks, some vision board materials (magazines to tear from, photos or other images, embellishments, color markers, scissors, etc.) and your imagination. We’ll provide prompts for the writing portion and vision board bases, glue, and a supply of material for the vision board making. Creating vision boards is an annual ritual for many as we enter into the new year who love making room for the Muse and her surprises as we play with all that messy art in a community of like-minded spirits. Please join us this year.
